[B-DR (HLA) linkage imbalance and transplants in Chile: a preliminary report].
Linkage imbalance for the B and DR loci (HLA) was found in a Chilean sample of families where a member had been proposed for transplantation. The B7-DR2 and B14-DR1 haplotypes were significantly more frequent than expected. Most associations were those found in Caucasian populations.
